About this event
This event is limited to 120 people! DO NOT wait to register!
Start the new year off right by joining us for our Annual Dinner celebrating 2026! We'll gather at 5:30pm on January 9th, 2027, at Double Clutch Brewing Company, 2121 Ashland Ave, in Evanston. Double Clutch Brewing Company is a fantastic car-themed, German style brewery and event venue. We heard you loud and clear last year! So here we are again at Double Clutch!
We'll kick things off at 5:30pm with drinks and hors d’oeuvres, followed by dinner, and then the main presentation! The evening officially wraps up at 10:00pm, when we’ll need to vacate the banquet area. But don’t worry, the bar will remain open until 11:00pm for anyone who wants to keep the good times rolling!
Dinner will be served at authentic Oktoberfest-style tables and benches, a fitting touch for a BMW club wouldn’t you say? (chairs will be available to sit at the end of a bench, if needed.)
This is a Windy City BMW member event. Each BMW CCA member can bring one adult (13+) guest. Children are welcome and don't count towards your party's guest total.

Agenda
The autocross awards presentation and Yokohama tire raffle will take place here, as well as raffle prizes, and a charity auction benefiting GiGi's Playhouse, the BMW CCA Foundation and Northern Illinois Food Bank.
